“This is the story of a knowing scoundrel, and of what became of him.” A Coward in Modern China is a travel comedy, crime caper and adventure - based on the escapades of bogus professor, Robert Runworth.
  • Set largely in contemporary Beijing, and partly in California, it is raunchy and mischievous in its plot and action. Yet the pages are also classically stylish; and historically detailed in their account of life in China today.
  • Here is a good old-fashioned yarn in the tradition of the Flashman series. The narrator’s voice has both an up-to-date quality and the timeless feel of more classical literature. Its main character is a thoughtful villain, rather like Dexter.
  • Therefore, like all truly entertaining literature and laugh-out-loud comedies, the ‘A Coward in. . .’ series is not for the politically correct. Written by British author, Jon Lee Junior, who has lived and taught in Asia for 12 years.
